I'll go bold.... 6-4 Washington (in all likelihood, I've doubled the actual final score, but a 10goal game 7 is too good not to wish for).

My head says TB, but my heart says OVIE.
My head and heart say Washington.
Reason my head says Washington is that Tampa had a chance to close Washington out in game 6 and couldn't. Now they are coming home and will be gripping their sticks a little tighter. and the fan base is going to be a little more tense. Also, Washington has came out and scored early in a few games this playoff. I think they will do the same and get the early lead and then Tampa will be playing from behind and the fans will be tense.
I'm not sure my post you quoted conveyed my thoughts as clearly as I would have liked - I think this series has been exciting to watch and while, in my opinion, the Caps have outplayed TB for decent stretches at even-strength, the Lightning have been lethal on the PP and buried their opportunities. I also think that a team shouldn't have to apologize for a hot goaltender and that they are still part of the team. TB has depth and I thought with Backstrom being injured that the Caps would be a little easier mark. They have been full marks in taking this series to a Game 7! Can't wait to watch this. I am happy with whichever team wins.
Could not agree more!! Just set a standard and be consistent. No other major sport changes their rules as the games get more important. Bush league. Call the bloody rules and there should be no issues.
I appreciate your posts today. I also like how you used EV as a verb!! lol I tried to give you some rep, but apparently I have to spread some around first.

The first 4 games went to the visiting teams. The last 3 will go to the home teams. Tampa wins.
Sad to say, but I think TB pulls it off tomorrow. Though my heart is still for Washington. I actually think TB will be energized at home, just as Washington was last night.
I would like to see a Vegas vs Washington series both teams have a good story coming in, would bring in great ratings as well.
Tonight is the night!!
I love Game 7s in the playoffs (except when Flyers are playing - too stressful).
I would love to see overtime in a game 7 tonight... therefore I am going to predict a 3-2 Washington win... with Ovy scoring the game winner on a wrister on the rush.

Gonna be a good game either way. Both teams have showed periods of dominance. Whoever settles in first and gets their confidence soaring (especially in net) will likely be the victor.

Gotta admit, the romantic in me is cheering for Ovie.
My wallet wants Tampa. My heart wants Washington. My head thinks.....frig I have no idea. Washington has just continued to defy odds all playoff. I would love to see them win. But....I really don't want Vegas winning and I'm not sure the Caps could take them out.
